  2. “It is clearly within the Court’s discretion to allow a case to be reopened and amended as is sought here by the Debtors. Further, such discretion may only be reversed upon a showing of clear abuse. In re Haker, 411 F.2d 568 (5th Cir.1969); Bartle v. Markson, 357 F.2d 517 (2nd Cir.1966); In re Ridill, 1 B.R. 216 (D.C.C.D.Cal.1979).”
